About the only other things I can think of are to apply a reflective
glazing to your south-facing windows. There is also a reflective foil for
the attic which you lay on the insulation to 'bounce' the thermal energy
away form the living space. I wonder what this does to shingle life in
the long term.


I am in error here. If you read this
http://www.ornl.gov/sci/roofs+walls/radiant/rb_01.html
you will see that laying the relflective barrier directly on the insulation
will negate much of
its beneficial properties. Apologies!
